1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

1.1 Introduction

This manual provides the installation instructions for the Garmin GMA 240 Audio Panel. References to

GMA 240 throughout this manual refer to all versions of the unit. Information pertaining to the maintenance of the unit can be found in the GMA 240 Maintenance Manual, P/N 190-00917-02.

Information pertaining to the operation of the unit can be found in the GMA 240 Pilot's Guide, P/N

190-00917-00.

1.2 Equipment Description

The Garmin GMA 240 Audio Panel is not a TSO-certified product and has received no FAA approval or endorsement.

The GMA 240 meets the needs of aircraft owners and operators who require reliability and versatility in the essential audio switching function. LED-illuminated push-button simplicity and intuitive panel layout allow audio selection of both NAV and COM audio. Large, single-button activation of the COM microphone and audio for two COM transceivers simplifies cockpit workload. Photocell dimming circuitry automatically adjusts the brightness of the annunciators to a level appropriate for ambient cockpit light. The brightness of the backlighting is controlled by the aircraft lighting bus. A fail-safe circuit connects the pilot's headset and microphone directly to COM1 and a fail-safe warning audio input in the event that power is interrupted or the unit is turned off.

Additionally, the GMA 240 includes a four-position intercom (ICS) with electronic cabin noise deemphasis, two stereo music inputs, and independent pilot and copilot/passenger volume controls. To further simplify the cockpit workload, the intercom provides for pilot isolation. One hundred percent solid state circuitry and extensive use of surface mount technology are employed.

If this jumper is removed, music will not be interrupted by alert audio. Default operation is recommended.

If a jumper is supplied in these positions, internal sidetone will be heard during PTT to simulate received sidetone from a radio that does not provide one during transmission. This should only be used if a radio does not perform this function already.

If this jumper is removed, intercom audio and intercom sidetone will not be heard when the TEL button is selected. Many phones supply sidetone when a call is in session. This causes a noticeable change in intercom sound quality but it is usually not disruptive. Default operation is recommended unless the effect of sidetone from the telephone is disruptive to intercom operation.

If a jumper is supplied in this position, when TEL is selected the audio panel will assume a telephone is in use in the front jack regardless of phone detection. This should be used only if the audio panel is not capable of properly detecting the telephone that will be used in the installation.

2.3.2 VOLUME/MUTE Configuration Adjustments

There are six access holes in the GMA 240 top cover ( Figure 2-2

) that allow access to potentiometers which can be used to make adjustments to input volume levels and the MASQ (Master Avionics SQuelch) mute level. The specific adjustments and their associated label on the back cover are:

• Alert 1 Volume. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ALRT 1 VOL

• Alert 2 Volume. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ALRT 2 VOL

• Alert 3 Volume. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ALRT 3 VOL

• Rear connector TEL input volume . . . . . . . . . . . . REAR TEL VOL

• Front panel jack TEL input volume. . . . . . . . . . . . FRONT TEL VOL

• MASQ (Master Avionics SQuelch) mute level . . . MUTE LVL

NOTE

Adjusting these levels is not generally needed or recommended for most installations.

For Alert 1, 2, & 3 volume inputs, rear conn TEL input, and front panel jack TEL inputs, a CW (clockwise) adjustment increases the levels for volume inputs.

For MASQ mute level, a CW (clockwise) adjustment increases the level for the mute threshold for radio inputs. MASQ circuitry functions to prevent low level noise from being passed to the headset ear speakers, this is known as “squelching” or muting the audio. To “break” or “open” squelch means that enough audio signal is present that the signal is passed through the audio circuitry and can be heard. Increasing (CW adjustment) this setting increases the signal level required to break/open squelch. If needed, adjust the

MASQ SQ level so the audio background noise is muted.

2.3.2.1 MASQ/ICS Squelch Descriptions

The Master Avionics Squelch (MASQ) mute level adjustment is a different/separate function from the ICS squelch that is controlled by the pilot/copilot squelch knobs on the unit’s front panel. MASQ is a squelch or noise threshold adjustment that applies to the radio/alert type inputs.

190-00917-01

Rev. E

GMA 240 Installation Manual

Page 2-3

The ICS (intercom) squelch (sound level that opens the mic audio for pilot/copilot/passengers) is manually adjusted by the pilot and copilot with dedicated front panel knobs, and is totally separate from MASQ.

CW rotation of the ICS adjustment knobs increases the amount of mic audio (VOX level) required to break squelch, see the GMA 240 Pilot’s Guide (190-00917-00) for details.

The MASQ affects the noise threshold for the COM, NAV, AUX, TEL, and Alert 1/2/3 audio inputs. It is factory adjusted to a level that works well for most installations, so it seldom needs to be adjusted by installers. When necessary, the MASQ is adjusted using a small screwdriver (see following note) through the MUTE LVL top access hole in the cover. For example, if one of the alert inputs has some background noise that is sometimes or always heard in the headset and causes music to be undesirably muted, raising the MASQ threshold may eliminate this issue. Anytime the MASQ is adjusted, it is very important to verify that all audio inputs, including alerts, still function correctly.

Figure 2-2 Access Hole Locations (Top View)

NOTE

Adjusting the MASQ mute level to a high level may squelch the desired audio.

NOTE

Exercise care when inserting adjustment tools through the top cover. Damage to the unit may occur if an adjustment tool is accidentally forced against unintended components or circuit board paths. Use a 2 mm (max blade width) flat-blade non-conductive screw driver or adjustment tool.

2.3.3 Hardwire Configuration Option

The following configuration options are available by externally wiring pins to aircraft chassis. When change of operation is desired during flight, these can optionally be wired to chassis through a suitable

switch mounted in reach of the operator. See Section 4.4.1

for connector and pin details for implementing

these configuration options.

MASQ™ INHIBIT: The Master Avionics SQuelch inhibit configuration option allows selected avionics audio inputs (COM, NAV, AUX) and alerts to be heard even if they do not exceed the MASQ threshold.

This increases background noise during otherwise quiet operation because noise from these inputs is not squelched. This option is most useful as a troubleshooting tool.

CREW ISO: This input configures the audio panel for crew intercom isolation in place of pilot isolation.

When the PILOT ISO key is selected, the pilot and copilot will hear each other but will be isolated from the passengers. When the CREW ISO configuration is selected, the copilot's headphone jack must be wired in parallel with the pilot headset output. Microphones are wired as normal.

PILOT ISO MUSIC: This input configures music to be heard by the pilot during PILOT ISO mode (or by the pilot and copilot if crew isolate mode is configured). Normally, the isolated ICS positions do not hear music.

BUTTON PRESS TONE ENABLE: This input enables an audible tone to be heard when a button press is detected.

MUTE ON COM TX: This input configures the audio panel to mute all selected radios (COM, NAV,

AUX) except the mic selected COM (COM selected for transmission) when a PTT key is activated for

COM transmit.

2.4 Noise

Because the audio panel is a point in the aircraft where signals from many pieces of equipment are brought together, care must be taken to minimize effects from coupled interference and ground loops.

Coupled interference can sneak into audio system interconnecting cables when they are routed near large

AC electric fields, AC voltage sources, and pulse equipment (strobes, spark plugs, magnetos, EL displays,

CRTs, etc). Interference can also couple into audio system interconnecting cables by magnetic induction when they are routed near large AC current-carrying conductors or switched DC equipment (heaters, solenoids, fans, autopilot servos, etc).

Ground loops are created when there is more than one path in which return currents can flow, or when signal returns share the same path as large currents from other equipment. These large currents create differences in ground potential between the various equipment operating in the aircraft. These differences in potential can produce an additive effect at an audio panel signal input.

The audio panel may "see" the desired input signal plus an unwanted component injected by ground differentials, a common cause of alternator-related noise. This is the main reason why all audio jacks should be isolated from ground. Terminating audio shields just at one end eliminates another potential ground loop injection point.

Single-point grounding cannot be overstressed for the various avionics producing and processing audio signals. Single-point, in this context, means that the various pieces of equipment share a single common ground connection back to the airframe. Good aircraft electrical/charging system ground bonding is also important.

The wiring diagrams and accompanying notes in this manual should be followed closely to minimize noise effects.

3 INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

3.1 Unpacking Unit

Carefully unpack the equipment and make a visual inspection of the unit for evidence of damage incurred during shipment. If the unit is damaged, notify the carrier and file a claim. To justify a claim, save the original shipping container and all packing materials. Do not return the unit to Garmin until the carrier has authorized the claim.

Retain the original shipping containers for storage. If the original containers are not available, a separate cardboard container should be prepared that is large enough to accommodate sufficient packing material to prevent movement.

3.2 Electrical Connections

All electrical connections to the GMA 240 are made through two 44-pin D-subminiature connectors (see

Figure 3-1

).

Section 4 defines the electrical characteristics of all input and output signals. Required

connector and associated hardware are supplied in the connector kit (P/N 011-00652-00). See

Appendix B

for interconnect wiring diagrams.

Check wiring connections for errors before inserting the GMA 240 into the rack. Incorrect wiring could cause internal component damage.

3.4 GMA 240 Installation

NOTE

Avoid installing the unit near heat sources. If this is not possible, ensure that additional cooling is provided. Allow adequate space for installation of cables and connectors. The installer will supply and fabricate all of the cables.

1. Assemble the connector/rack kit according to Table 4-1

, Table 4-2

; and Figure B-1 and

Figure B-1

.

Install the rack assembly according to the dimensions given in

Figure A-1

and Figure A-3

.

Mounting brackets are not supplied due to the wide range of mounting configurations available.

Suitable mounting brackets may be fabricated from sheet metal or angle stock. To ensure a sturdy mount, rear support for the unit should be provided.

2. Slide the unit into the rack until the jackscrew makes contact with the receptacle located in the back plate.

3. Insert a 3/32" Allen wrench into the jackscrew access hole on the faceplate.

4. Turn the Allen wrench clockwise until the unit is secured in the rack. Continue turning until tight, but do not over-tighten.

CAUTION

Do not use excessive force when inserting the GMA 240 into the rack. This may damage the connectors, unit, and/or unit rack. If heavy resistance is felt during installation, stop, and remove the GMA 240 and identify the source of resistance.

5. To remove the unit from the rack, turn the Allen wrench counterclockwise until it disengages from the rack.

3.5 Post Installation Checkout

CAUTION

Check wiring connections for errors before inserting the GMA 240 into the rack.

Incorrect wiring could cause internal component damage.

An in-aircraft checkout may be performed in the aircraft on the ramp with known good microphone, headset, and avionics receivers.

3.5.1 Lamp Test

1. Apply power to the unit by rotating the pilot intercom knob clockwise.

2. Verify that all annunciators on the front panel are illuminated during initial power up.

3.5.2 Failsafe Operation Check

1. Turn the unit off by rotating the pilot intercom knob fully counter clockwise.

2. Check the failsafe operation by exercising the COM 1 microphone, microphone key, and monitoring received COM 1 audio over the pilot headphone's left earpiece.

3. If installed, check that the failsafe warning is heard in the pilot headphone's left earpiece.

4. Turn the unit back on to continue testing.

3.5.3 Transceiver Operational Check

1. Perform a ramp test radio check by exercising the installed transceivers, microphone, microphone key, and audio over the headphone.

2. Verify that communications are loud and clear and PTT operation is correct.

3.5.4 Intercom System (ICS) Check

NOTE

Stereo headsets are recommended if stereo jacks are installed. Alternatively, the installation should employ stereo jacks with a mono/stereo switch that disconnects the audio panel's right channel output from the jack's ring contact when in mono mode. If a monaural headset is used in a stereo jack, the audio panel's right channel output is shorted to ground by the mono headset's plug. This causes excess power supply current to be drawn. While this does not damage the unit's output circuitry, prolonged periods

(especially at high volume) may cause the internal power input fuse to open. This is because the unit is optimized for low-power operation in systems with limited power budgets. In the case of copilot/passenger positions wired in parallel, any stereo listener will lose right channel audio when another passenger plugs in a mono headset.

1. Set the intercom to the ALL mode [Pilot ISO LED off.]

2. Plug in headsets at each ICS position.

NOTE

For helicopter operation using a two-stage Intercom/PTT switch, prior to using the keyedintercom mode, the VOX level should be set by adjusting the VOX knob while the first detent is actuated and held.

3. Check Pilot and Copilot ICS positions for isolation and proper operation of volume and squelch controls.

Rev. E

GMA 240 Installation Manual

Page 3-3

3.5.5 Aircraft Receivers Check

1. Select the audio source corresponding to each installed avionics unit and check for audio over the headsets.

3.5.6 Music System Check

1. Set the intercom to the ALL mode [Pilot ISO LED off.]

2. Connect a stereo audio source to MUSIC 1 (ensure the front panel jack is empty and the music volume knob is not set to minimum). Verify that stereo audio is heard over all headset positions when MUSIC 1 is selected as the music source and MUSIC LED is on. Pull out on the right side small knob and verify that music volume adjustment is working properly.

3. Select an audio source to COM 1 and verify that the sound is muted by active COM 1 audio when

RADIO music mute is selected and by intercom audio when ICS music mute is selected.

4. Connect a stereo music source to MUSIC 2. Verify that stereo audio is heard when MUSIC 2 is selected as the music source and MUSIC LED is on.

5. Connect a stereo audio source to the front panel jack. Verify that stereo audio is heard when

MUSIC 1 is selected as the music source and MUSIC LED is on.

CAUTION

Be sure to check all aircraft control movements before flight is attempted to ensure that the wiring harness does not touch any moving part.

This completes the in-aircraft post installation checkout. Perform a flight test after installing the unit to ensure satisfactory performance of the audio functions.

3.6 Configuration Adjustments

Adjustment to the Volume and Squelch settings can be made to the GMA 240 through access holes in the unit's top cover. Refer to

Section 2.3

for details.

3.7 Continued Airworthiness

Maintenance of the GMA 240 is "on condition" only. Refer to the GMA 240 Maintenance Manual

(Garmin P/N 190-00917-02) as needed. Periodic maintenance of the GMA 240 is not required.

Instructions for Continued Airworthiness (ICA) are not required for this product under 14 CFR Part 21 since the GMA 240 has received no FAA approval or endorsement.

4.3.2 Lighting Bus

The GMA 240 photocell controls the brightness of the LEDs (annunciators) that show selection of functions (e.g. rectangular LEDs in the buttons).

The external lighting bus (if used) input on pins 5, 6, & 7 (P2402), should be connected as shown in

Figure B-1 (page 3 of 3) to control the brightness of the text on the buttons (e.g. “COM1”) and the text in

the background of the button fields (e.g. “MUTE MUSIC”). The lighting bus must be capable of supplying 160 mA at 14 V or 100 mA at 28 V to provide backlight power to these pins at full brightness. If pins 5, 6, & 7 are not connected, the text labeling will not be backlit.
